here ist the documentation from command line arguments:

Looks there is no way from the command line.
1Generally you would ssh into tbe server (or connect via condole) and issue the command "passwd" command which will prompt to change your password or, as root, "passwd username". This will have the sude effect of changing yoyr ssh password - assuming you are not using public/private keys.
Note that some FTP servers can be configured to use a different authentication method (but generally use the users Linux password by default). If that is the case we would need to know the name of the FTP server as well as how its configured.
